  • APTA Expo 2011 in New Orleans
    mously selected as the new president and CEO of APTA. While Melaniphy has been involved with the industry for 23 years, it is noteworthy that his last 10 years have been spent in the private sector at MCI. I might mention that outgoing president Bill Millar, who has served APTA for 15 years, very graciously stopped by our booth at the show to greet us. I hesitate to name compass directions in New Orleans because they can be confus - ing. Many of us tend to think of downriver as south and upriver as north but with all of its curves and turns, I suspect that the Mis - sissippi actually flows north past the Con - vention Center. The Expo extended from Hall D to Hall J in a straight line that one floor manager insists was three-quarters of a mile long. IBM graciously provided a fleet of golf carts that shuttled up and down the main hallway providing a local form of pub - lic transportation during the event. An obvious difference between regular bus shows was that the APTA Expo had numerous exhibitors dealing with rail vehi - cles ranging from streetcars to commuter rail and even diesel locomotives. At least four display areas included full or partial rail cars and several booths showed model trains. The most impressive was a full artic - ulated electric rail car built in Switzerland standing on conventional rails bolted to ties sitting on the convention show floor. There were three other rail cars but without wheels. One end of the Expo was heavily popu - lated with rail exhibitors while the other end was predominately bus, including a special APTA Expo 2011 area dedicated to CNG power.

  • WMATA Documents
    Part 3 – Reference Materials WMATA Documents FOREWORD The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (“WMATA”), created effective February 20, 1967, is an interstate compact agency and, by the terms of its enabling legislation, an agency and instrumentality of the Signatories: the District of Columbia, State of Maryland, and Commonwealth of Virginia. WMATA was created by the Signatories to plan, develop, finance and caused to be operated a comprehensive mass transit system for the Washington Metropolitan Area. This volume includes the provisions of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Compact (“WMATA Compact”), followed by Congresses’ consent legislation, a history of the WMATA Compact adoption and amendments, and notes covering prior WMATA Compact language. Congress provided its consent to the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Compact as Title III of the previously adopted Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Regulation Compact (“Transit Regulation Compact”). See, “Consent Legislation.” Generally, references in the WMATA Compact to “this Title,” mean Title III (i.e. WMATA Compact). References to “this Compact,” on the other hand, mean either the Transit Regulation Compact as a whole (e.g. Section 59: “as granted by Titles I and II of this Compact”), or the WMATA Compact (e.g. Section 76(e): “in accordance with Section 62(c) and (d) of this Compact”), depending on context. As of this publication, the WMATA Compact has been amended seven times. “Compact History,” outlines the history of the WMATA Compact from adoption through amendment, with citations and a cross-reference table. “Notes” contains WMATA Compact language prior to amendment. The Notes section also addresses substantive discrepancies in WMATA Compact language between the Signatories.
